Environment, Social, Governance (ESG) - these three keywords stand for the major goals and challenges of our time: protecting our environment and climate (Environment), promoting social cohesion (Social) and ensuring sound and sustainable corporate management (Governance). Achieving these goals requires a fundamental transformation of our economy.
In the process, ESG has evolved from a pure risk and compliance issue to a lever for generating value. With a holistic ESG strategy, you can not only minimise risks, but also exploit new potential, strengthen your resilience to volatile market conditions and play an active role in shaping a sustainable future.
Integrating environmental, social and governance factors into the corporate strategy opens up new business opportunities and strengthens long-term competitiveness in addition to overcoming global challenges. ESG is thus becoming a decisive factor in shaping value enhancement and preservation and therefore future viability in an increasingly sustainable economy.
The following questions guide our actions:
- Resilience: How can we preserve economic value despite facing significant ESG risks?
- Efficiency: How can we improve operational performance and use resources efficiently?
- Growth: How can we create added value and build sustainable business models?
